Abstract
A reading of Plato specific to the 16 th century is one of the keys for the understanding of the genesis of modern thinking. Utopists are the best example. Thomas More, author of Utopia , Tommaso Campanella, with the De Civitate Solis and Francis Bacon with New Atlantis deal with questions concerning the projection of an ideal society, or rather, some of the most important issues of the period’s political philosophy. This article aims at discussing the idea of justice in the three authors. Their identification with the Platonic concept of justice as it appears in The Republic will be necessary since this work is considered the archetype of all posterior utopias.
